CHRISTMAS IS COOL!!!

OK, it’s ALMOST December, and that means just one thing… Christmas is coming! It’s my fave time of year. I love seeing the fairy lights twinkling in the dark streets, the tinsel, the Christmas trees, the stockings hung over the fireplace. I love the smell of cinnamon and satsumas and warm mince pies… sigh.

Christmas traditions are fab – I loved researching Polish Christmas traditions for Angel Cake, and loved writing the Christmassy bits in that book, too! The best thing of all about Christmas, though, is spending time with special friends and family… and taking time out to show each other how much we care. That’s cool!

What are YOU planning for Christmas this year? We asked the DREAM TEAM readers for their Christmas ideas – check out what they have to say below and on the DREAM TEAM page! Don’t forget to send in YOUR fave things about Christmas through the comments link below… and of course, let me know which CC books would be on your Christmas list!

Oh, and I have a very special Christmas surprise coming for you all soon… watch this space!

If you had to pick 1 Cathy Cassidy book, which one would you ask for for Christmas?
Angel Cake – Even though I already have it, it’s a great Christams gift because it’s the latest one and it’s sweet, like Christmas!

Zoe S
Other than CC books (of course!) what else are you really hoping for this year for Christmas?
This year, I am really hoping to get a microphone for Christmas.

Lisa
What is your favourite thing about Christmas?
My favourite thing about Christmas is the excitement of everyone being happy and how everywhere you go it’s constantly buzzing! Also spending the day with my family and celebrating Christmas for what it actually is! But as well, the presents make the whole day a bit enjoyable!!!

Hannah Too! says...

Hi Cathy! My librarian told me that you wanted to go to me school but she said no (i wuz like what?) anyway she said cuz u wanted to talk to only girls! :-(

Cathy Cassidy says...

Very strange… I’ve NEVER refused to talk to a mixed group, although I prefer to talk to girls if its in a high school as they are the ones reading my books. Seems as if she has got a bit mixed up? Also, i don’t approach schools to ask if I can come and visit – it is usually the other way around, and I have a lot more requests than I can actually manage! xxx

Lauren says...

Hello Cathy =]! I’m a big fan of your books… I wish I could possess them all! Also, I highly doubt that Cathy would refuse to talk to boys… What about Mouse in Lucky Star? Or Finn in Dizzy? Cathy is awesome! x

Lauryn says...

My favourite time of year is when it’s Christmas. I love the potatoes, turkey, mince pies, brussell sprouts (even though I don’t like them, it reminds me of christmas), the twinkly lights, tinsels, christmas trees, the movies that come on TV, getting presents, and the one thing that rounds it up – having a good time with my family, celebrating Jesus’s birthday.
